When I swapped my '03 brakes for the '08 & later versions the same steel wheels were used, fit perfectly.
Clearances are a bit slim at least as compared to the earlier calipers, rotors etc. In over 50K miles so far there have been no problems or issues with stock steel wheels fitting the larger brakes.
